Occasionally, I run into items that don't have a price guide tab, but only
Items for sale and Color Info. What does it mean if this is missing? Is this
an indication that the item has never been sold, or is there a min. amount of
sales that should take place, before this is added?

It means that no one has sold that item in the last 6 months.

But is this preferred? The price guide doesn't only show what has been sold,
but also what's currently for sale. For buyers, this might not necessarily
be important, but for sellers, this could be a strategic tool.

I believe it also depends on your buying filter about location: they are for
sale but you don’t want to see them, so they are not shown

That makes sense, I guess there were no sellers in the area I am comparing my
pricing against. Thanks!
